Customer Reviews
Great show
This podcast is incredible! Can you guys please do a podcast on movies from the 90s
Awesome show!
Not afraid to indulge in genuine affection for these nostalgic classics. This is a very fun and informative show and the hosts stick to looking at the movies for what they were in the 80s. They’re definitely one of the best retro movie podcasts out there.
Thief review
Thanks for the great review of Thief. Been many years since I last saw it and didn’t appreciate as much as I should have the first view. The mood set up by Tangerine Dreams’ score is so perfect and I felt along the ways that I was watching an extended Miami Vice episode. The only disagreement I have with you is with Tuesday Weld. I really enjoyed the development of their relationship and it felt very real and loving to me. Also so impressed with how Michael Mann brought out both the beauty and the grit of Chicago.
